NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J -- Jurors in the trial of a student accused of using a webcam to spy on his roommate kissing another man can't hear about an email passage in which the alleged victim referred to the defendant's behavior as "wildly inappropriate," a judge decided Wednesday.

But the jury can hear about another part of the email in which Tyler Clementi said he believed his privacy had been violated, the judge ruled. The email said Clementi was "extremely uncomfortable sharing a room with someone who would act in this manner."

Clementi killed himself shortly afterward.

I stated this a few days after Tyler Clementi's death in a couple of blogs at that time. I do not believe Tyler committed suicide. It was foul play. In any of the blogs at the time of the event he did not indicate he was suicidal. If there are any digital information indicating suicide weeks after the event I would question the validity of those records. It is very easy to fabricate digital data.
